520    This unique architecture atlas shows the most remarkable 
       buildings in the world. Children and adults will marvel in
       amazement. Mali, in North Africa, is home to the largest 
       building made out of clay; the structure only took one 
       year to complete. For the construction of Neuschwanstein 
       Castle, 465 tons of marble were hefted to the Alps to the 
       building site. The Atomium in Brussels boasts the longest 
       escalators in Europe. The largest mosque in the world is 
       as big as 56 football fields. The Illustrated Atlas of 
       Architecture and Marvelous Monuments presents a world of 
       breathtaking buildings and their incredible stories 
       through illustrated maps and engaging factsheets. Sarah 
       Tavernier and Alexandre Verhille have already deftly shown
       with Legendary Routes of the World that they are experts 
       in showcasing the biggest and the best. Now, for The 
       Illustrated Atlas of Architecture and Marvelous Monuments,
       they researched the longest bridges, tallest towers, the 
       most impressive cultural sites, and plenty of curiosities.
       Exciting facts are woven together with a myriad of 
       architectural styles; the material feats are skillfully 
       and artfully placed upon bold maps, situating the 
       constructions within a geographic context.
